Our dirty little secret..

Over the last 5 years our backyard has turned into a tip. Here in Bacchus Marsh there is no hard rubbish removals and our shire does not offer tip vouchers. For a single parent to fork out hundreds of dollars for rubbish removals is near inpossible, but with help from the family tex benifit mid-year one off payment, we made it work. $480 dollars for a bin to finally get rid of our dirty little secret!

So that is what Matt and I are doing today while Nevaeh is asleep and Jiedyn is watching a movie after 30 minutes of computer time. I'm thrilled to finally be able to open my gates without having to quickly close them behind me again..

I'm hiding a closet full of scrapbooking stuff-- that when you open the doors it all falls out! The sad thing is... lol... I have an AWESOME scrapbook area downstairs in the basement that I don't even use!

I buy the kids clothes when I see something that I love even if its too big. They are often from thrift stores so its always a good deal...We have boxes. Like about a dozen. In the attic. Labeled by size. I don't think the family knows beyond my hubby!
